How do you see that working? No i dont expect each individual to have a length chat. But I expect some effort of a group of people to put important issues on the map. Should I as a Board member tell this community how to select issues to bring forward for discussion? I have a suggestions, but I need people in the community to value he need for direct community involvement. As a prelude to this very moment, I asked if our current voting system could handle some sort of ranked q/a concept, that let community members ask questions.. and then let other community members rank those questions up and down... with the end result being a top 10 set of questions that the community as a whole felt strongly about asking of each and every candidate. The response...can't do it yet. But I was pointed to this: http://code.google.com/p/pcloadletter/ as an existing example on how to generate a list of community ranked questions. And then I was pointed to http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/VotePlugin as something we co plugin into our existing trac instance to mimic what the pcloadletter people do to rank questions. If you were given a facility through which you could rank questions and issues submitted by other community members would you use it? Would you submit questions into the que to be ranked? Would you, rank other submissions? Would you use this to generate a list of issues and questions to ask candidates to respond to during the next election? Would you use it to generate questions to ask the current Board to respond to during its public meetings? -jef _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
